I had a busy week at work last week, but was able to watch the recorded Democratic debate tonight (the one from Myrtle Beach, SC, during which Obama said Clinton was on the board of Walmart and Clinton said Obama couldn’t pay for his programs). He said, she said, blah blah blah – but geez, what the heck was Wolf Blitzer doing hosting it?! Hasn’t he already hosted a debate? And this one was TWO HOURS LONG! As usual, everyone steam-rolled over him, he tried to redundantly make the same comments when he was allowed a chance to speak, and he succeeded at annoying me again. Interestingly, when I spell-checked this blog post, Windows Live Writer asked me if I wanted to use the word “Blister” in place of “Blitzer.”
At the end of the debate, Blitzer said, “We are completely out of time. But we do have time for one last question…” Grrr! Then apparently you are not completely out of time, are you? That last question, by the way, was about why Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr should endorse each of the candidates – a “Why should Dr. King have chosen you?” I think this is such a stupid question, and very disrespectful to Dr. King. How can anyone judge who he would have supported? I can easily draw a parallel with those ridiculous billboards that say: ‘ “I am watching you.” -God’ or something equally unattributable to God.
Count your blessings. It could just as easily have been Nancy Grace hosting. Or maybe even the pair of them!
Evan, what a riot. Even better: Nancy, Wolf, and Bill O’Reilly.
) By the way, Jodi, I’m back to Hillary. Never thought I’d jump around so much. Nothing would please me more than a Clinton-Obama ticket come November, however unlikely that may be.
